What's causing the difference in file size and structure when compressing through powershell vs compressing...
2
When I compress a directory in PowerShell, the result is different than when I compress the folder manually by right clicking on the folder and selecting Winzip → Add to zip file.
Here's the code I am using in PowerShell:
Add-Type -Assembly "System.IO.Compression.FileSystem"
[IO.Compression.Zipfile]::CreateFromDirectory("./output/notification_templates", "./output/notification_templates.zip", [System.IO.Compression.CompressionLevel]::Optimal, $false)
I've also tried
Compress-Archive -Path ./output/notification_templates -DestinationPath ./output/notification_templates.zip
The result looks like this when I hover over the zip file created through PowerShell (file size 23 kB):
Files/Folders in Zip file: 32
jcr_root.content.xml
jcr_roottest_page29082.html.binary
jcr_rootcontent.content.xml
jcr_rootcontentboink.content.xml
jcr_rootcontentboinkus.content.xml
jcr_rootcontentboinkusen.content.xml
jcr_rootcontentboinkusenpro.content.xml
jcr_rootcontentboinkusenpronotification_templates.content.xml
jcr_rootcontentboinkusenpronotification_templatesemail.content.xml
Not Shown: 23 files/folders
When created manually (size: 32 kB):
Files/Folders in Zip file: 61
jcr_root/
jcr_root/.content.xml
jcr_root/content/
jcr_root/content/.content.xml
jcr_root/content/boink/
jcr_root/content/boink/content.xml
jcr_root/content/boink/us/.content.xml
jcr_root/content/boink/us/en/
jcr_root/content/boink/us/en/.content.xml
jcr_root/content/boink/us/en/pro/
jcr_root/content/boink/us/en/pro/.content.xml
jcr_root/content/boink/us/en/pro/notification_templates/
Not Shown: 48 files/folders
How do I replicate the manual case with PowerShell?

Winzip is not the same as io.compression.zipfile. I guess they use different defaults for compression levels. etc. I note here docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/… that the default for-CompressionLevelisOptimal. Maybe tryFastestinstead and see if you get the same result.

Compression level is the first thing I'd look at, as Nick already mentioned. On top of that it looks like Winzip creates explicit entries for each directory while the .Net methods don't.
